<Reporter> On the
21st of last month, two men enter a karaoke room in Jung-gu, Incheon.
One of them was brutally murdered by 34-year-old Minwoo Heo, the owner of a karaoke room.
He was assaulted and murdered by Minwoo Heo while arguing over the price of alcohol.
Afterwards, Minwoo Heo stopped by a nearby mart and purchased cleaning detergents and garbage bags to damage the body and destroy the evidence.
[Neighboring mart employee: Locks is sure.
I bought Rocks.
I also talked about the garbage bag.
Tape too...

Even after the arrest, he denied the crime and did not say the place of the abandonment of the body, but he confessed only after the core evidence, such as blood, came out from the bathroom.
[Minwoo Heo/Spouse: (You continued trying to cover up, did you think it would really not take?) I'm really sorry.
I'm really sorry...
.] The
police held a deliberation committee for personal information disclosure today (17th) and decided to disclose the personal information of Heo Min-woo.
It is that the people's right to know takes precedence over human rights violations against the suspect because the crime is cruel.
Heo Min-woo had a number of criminal convictions, including assault and injury, but it is known that he received probation and probation from the Ministry of Justice on charges of assault last year.
They even committed murder during the probation period.
Immediately before the incident, police officers who were not dispatched after receiving reports from the victims that they were struggling with alcohol prices are being investigated to see if the response was appropriate.
